A clad plate for forming an interposer for a semiconductor device which can be manufactured at low cost and has good characteristics, an interposer for a semiconductor device, and a method of manufacturing them. Copper foil materials (19, 24, 33) forming conductive layers (10, 17, 18) and nickel plating (20, 21) forming etching stopper layers (11, 12) are formed and pressed to form a clad plate (34) for forming an interposer for a semiconductor device. Thus, a clad plate (34) for forming an interposer for a semiconductor device is manufactured. The clad plate (34) is selectively etched to form a columnar conductor (17), and an insulating layer (13) is formed on the copper foil material forming a wiring layer (10). A bump (18) for connection of a semiconductor chip and the wiring layer (10) are formed on the opposite side to the side on which the columnar conductor (17) is formed. Thus, an interposer for a semiconductor device is manufactured.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method for manufacturing an interposer-forming clad layer for use in a semiconductor device manufactured by press-bonding an oxygen-free copper foil material and a nickel foil material at a rolling reduction of 0.1 to 3%, wherein the interposer-forming clad plate for use in the semiconductor device is formed by previously applying an activating treatment to the bonded surfaces of an oxygen free copper foil and the nickel foil or nickel plating in a vacuum vessel and then laminating an oxygen free copper foil and the nickel foil material or nickel plating and cold press-binding them at a rolling reduction of 0.1 to 3% in which the activating treatment is applied in an inert gas atmosphere at an extremely low pressure of 1×10 1 to 1×10 −2 Pa, using the nickel plated oxygen free copper foil material and an oxygen free copper foil material as one electrode A having a bonding surface grounded to the earth, respectively, and conducting glow discharge by applying an AC current at 1 to 50 MHz between the electrode A and another electrode B supported insulatively and applying sputter etching, with the area of the electrode exposed in plasma caused by the glow discharge being ⅓ or less of electrode B.
2. A method for manufacturing an interposer-forming clad layer for use in a semiconductor device by press-bonding an oxygen-free copper foil material having nickel plating on one surface or both surfaces and other oxygen free copper foil material or an oxygen free copper foil material having nickel plating on one surface at a rolling reduction of 0.1 to 3%, wherein the interposer-forming clad plate for use in the semiconductor device is formed by previously applying an activating treatment to the bonded surfaces of an oxygen free copper foil and the nickel foil or nickel plating in a vacuum vessel and then laminating an oxygen free copper foil and the nickel foil material or nickel plating and cold press-binding them at a rolling reduction of 0.1 to 3% in which the activating treatment is applied in an inert gas atmosphere at an extremely low pressure of 1×10 1 to 1×10 −2 Pa, using the nickel plated oxygen free copper foil material and an oxygen free copper foil material as one electrode A having a bonding surface grounded to the earth, respectively, and conducting glow discharge by applying an AC current at 1 to 50 MHz between the electrode A and another electrode B supported insulatively and applying sputter etching, with the area of the electrode exposed in plasma caused by the glow discharge being ⅓ or less of electrode B.
